**Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2022

Sometimes I lose myself when searching for my recognisitions or my rewards. I think it can be more user friendly, meaning to be more intuitive when you want toget somewhere.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The offering feedback issue, which in some company may not be so "at hand" to do it as it may be with a platform like this. Our business performance has increased also

**Reviewed Date:** September 20, 2022

Workstars is excellent when it comes to acknowledging outstanding work performance within the facility. The best thing about it is that it is a great way to ensure good acts are recognized.

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

One thing that I have noticed about Workstars that my employees have brought up is that vouchers/gift cards that used to be available to redeem are now not redeemable. Example: Visa gift cards.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As mentioned above, Workstars is a great way to help solve the problem of acts going unnoticed. Now with Workstars ALL employees can be recognized in a positive manner, especially by higher executives.

  ### 7. Workstars is a great way to organically encourage others

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Josh G. | Applications Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 21, 2022

**What do you like best about Workstars?**

I really like the integration with real dollar value rewards- it makes the messages that much more impactful, and makes it fun to both give and recieve encouragement and thanks.

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

The website layout is a bit confusing, there is too much going on in the home page. I think if it could be simplified, so my grandma could use it easily, it would be really great.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Sometimes it is difficult to organically compliment, thank, and appreciate coworkers. This website is build to do just that and allows these important remarks to be shared with one another naturally.

**Reviewed by:** Destiny M. | Health care assistant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 04, 2022

What i like about work star is that it's a great place to give recognition and give good feedback to fellow coworkers. Also, that support coworkers' needs and show how important a person could be in there workspace. Also the fact that it lets you give recognition to anybody.

The downside of work star is you should be able to redeem more stuff with all the recognition and good feedback, so your hard work could pay off. Also more avatars availibitlity and a bit more charecteristics.

Workstar is solving the problem of giving a workspace extra support and comfort. Also, being recognized gives that great feeling that you are important and valuable to the workspace. The fact the others in the workspace could see the recognition as well.

  ### 9. TO SHOW COWORKERS HOW AWESOME

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** amanda l. | REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH ASSISTANT, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 21, 2022

**What do you like best about Workstars?**

I love that I can name a specific person in my company, and I can highlight specific things that are a part of all of our company's key values. I love how it helps build our team

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

I wish we had more space available to explain the situation with more of a character alotment fully. I would also love to be able to highlight just my specific clinic

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps solve a huge part of communication. Alot of times you only hear negatives and criticisms at work, this allows people to and recognize you for the good and that helps build a stronger team

Workstars is nice to use because it is like social media for the workplace. And better yet, it also has a rewards system built in!

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

There are not many down sides to using Workstars. It would be interesting to be able to receive notifications or "follow" activity from other departments or people.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Workstars is a solution to a manual and people-based rewards program. Obviously people must be involved in this but now that we have a system to process all of the data, it makes it much easier to use.

A great platform to acknowledge people, thank them and motivate them. I like the points you can earn and the incentives to buy something.

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

The website could be more modern, I think it looks bit old.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Its solving the issue of not being recognized, so it motivates you very much if you are acknowledged during the daily business. It connects the whole company.

**Reviewed by:** Kelci H. | Counselor, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

The fact that you can express gratitude to co-workers.

Nothing! It's been a great tool. Maybe an upgrade on the profile picture graphics.

When I am feeling like I am not appreciated or starting to feel burned out, it's nice to be able to see that I am appreciated.

  ### 13. Great way to improve employee morale

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Melissa W. | Clinical Supervisor, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2022

**What do you like best about Workstars?**

Being able to personalize appreciation to you coworkers and employees.

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

Navigating the work stars site can be a little cumbersome.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Reaching out to tech support/helpdesk was an easy and positive experience

  ### 14. Very Comfortable.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Medical Practice | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 20, 2022

**What do you like best about Workstars?**

Workstars is a very user friendly system that allows you to navigate easily within it. I really like the awards it gives you and the simple reminders of how far you've come.

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

I have not found anything about the least helpful with Workstars.  Could there be any really down falls, I mean come on. haha I could see more improvements by having more people use Workstars.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Workstars is helping us in our office solve things I'm not sure of. Also, I'm not sure what benefits there are. I'm still new; I don't know how our performance has increased.

  ### 15. Very good Website!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Priscila M. | Business owner and Cake designer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 01, 2022

**What do you like best about Workstars?**

We can recognise colleagues for even small actions, that really counts for our day.

I dont have nothing to complain about it.

I believe it makes we get closer to our colleagues.

  ### 16. Workstars is a Home Run

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Glass, Ceramics & Concrete | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Workstars?**

The ability to raise public awareness of outstanding acts performed by colleagues that usually go unrecognized otherwise.  The ability to reward people who help you out with something more than words.

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

Only small segments of this company are participating, so depending on which groups/teams you are working with, sometimes you cannot acknowledge them in this way.  It would be best if the whole company participated.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It can be challenging to reward people in person for going above and beyond without the potential for talk of favoritism, unbalanced rewards, etc.  With Workstars, the acknowledgments are public but the remuneration amounts remain private.

Cool way to boost morale and give recognition at work!

I don't dislike anything so far about the program!

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

I can't think of anything, that is not working well for us, at this point.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We currently do not have any problems to solve.  However, we recently completed a Secure File Transfer and, thanks to their team, the implementation was successful

  ### 19. Instant recognition

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Banking | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 12, 2023

**What do you like best about Workstars?**

This program makes it quick and easy to recognize our coworkers.  We so often want to publicly recognize our coworkers but the process is usually time consuming and so you put it off and moment slips by. This program  takes no time at all and your coworker is instantly aware of the recognition.   Love it!

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

I have not seen any downsides at this point

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Just making it more efficient to recognize our coworkers quickly

  ### 20. its great for inner company, but haven't felt strong about it for recommending it to others

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 21, 2022

**What do you like best about Workstars?**

Notifying other people of their performance, how they go above and beyond, and seeing the respect and recognition of good behavior is always positive. Nice to see people recognizing good instead of bad all the time.

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

Downside is I don't use it enough. I should use it more, but the interface and how to interact with employees is fairly easy to use. Only dislike is not using workstars more

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I don't see how the workstars programming is impacting our business. It's a recognition platform, but rewards don't sustain behavior, discipline and follow through does.

  ### 21. Sustainable boost to employees

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Satender J. | Applied Data Scientist, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2022

Recognition. It helps to increase employee's engagement and confidence.

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

Nothing at all. Their is nothing to dislike about this.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Most important for any organisation is to motivate their employees. Workstars exactly do the same by recognition. It will help employees to engage and recognise each other talent which will enhance their confidence and productivity will be increased.

  ### 22. Recognition causes the action to repeat itself

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Raúl Antonio V. | Shopper Insight Client Associate, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 03, 2022

**What do you like best about Workstars?**

The platform is friendly, it is straightforward to use.

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

Having to login from a different page can be tedious and may prevent people from giving recognitions.

It makes me feel my help is essential and to give recognition to someone that helps me with something is comforting.

  ### 23. Great tool to give and receive recognition in the workplace!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Mining & Metals | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 21, 2022

**What do you like best about Workstars?**

I enjoy recognizing my fellow employees based explicitly on our CORE values. It helps focus the recognition so others can see how we live our values. It's also great that there is a way to give and receive rewards through the site.

**What do you dislike about Workstars?**

Your response to recognition is only privately sent to the recognizer. There may be a way to help others see the reaction to it. I know there is currently a way to comment on others, but I am not sure if you can comment on your recognition.

**What problems is Workstars solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Before Workstars there was no way to publicly recognize fellow employees. I know not everyone is well versed in recognition, but it is something that has helped make others feel welcomed and their actions to make an impact!
